      The dumbest lemmy take I’ve read all day (that said, the day has just begun)

      The far left wants to exterminate a particular social group - capitalists - because it directly oppresses everyone else through violence. Depending on the flavor of leftism, extermination of a group doesn’t have to mean extermination of individuals, rather it means the destruction of their social status and the redistribution of their wealth. The goal is self-defence: stop the literal physical violence through which the masses are kept poor & under control, through violence if necessary.

      The far right wants to exterminate all minorities. And in that case it does literally mean hanging black people in trees and setting gay couples on fire, physical destruction of marginalized individuals. The goal is to install an religious ethnostate.

      If you can’t tell the two apart, you’re literally the centrist from the OP meme

      What are you even saying? I you trying to reference the elite left? Because they aren’t actually left, they’re grifters.
